    Can't see too much from that pic but if it is legit then that is a special piece.

    If that is all correct, that's a killer watch. '57? '58?

    Put a nice meteor shower bezel on that and you got the perfect watch!

    Hate the strap, but love the dial... @oddboy if it's for sale, this could be your chance to outdo even yourself!

    As Dr. No said: Of course, when it comes to watches of this caliber, they could be attached to your wrist with rubber bands and still be fine ;-) . . .

    I keep having dreams (nightmares?) of finding one of these at a garage sale. Has to happen eventually for someone, right?

    Amazing piece! One of my grails. How often do you wear it?

    I thought that particular chocolate dial was familiar!

    @ock2915, did you ever tell the story of how you came to own this piece?

    From your original thread:

    "you have given me an idea about a new thread explaining a bit what I had to do to purchase it"

    I can't find such a thread and would love to hear the story.
